06/13/10 Venting

Been a while since I blogged....   This is just venting of where I am at these days... First, since dropping a total of 61 pounds in 2.5 months the scale is frustrating the hell outta me...I am fighting the same damn 3 pounds for a week and a half now...I am so upset about this. It seems that all the work I have done is just now starting to not work. I am getting a bit depressed. The depression is leading to less exercising....and loss of motivation. I am trying really hard to keep my eat

Reaching Goals and being excited!!

Ok...I know this is early but I'm just so excited that I can't wait...I am 2 pounds away from first goal....In 2 pounds I will be in twoderville!!! A loss of 1 pound will put me at the 50 pounds lost mark!! I am going to reward myself by going to a quality plus sized clothing store and getting a few items...I need everything, even panties and bras...My body is changing and looking smaller. I CAN EVEN SEE IT NOW!!! I am just so happy that I had this surgery...I found out today what my Mom is

Nashville.....

Nashville....my home for the first 30 years of my life...Wow, that's a long time. I am feeling so horrible about the flooding that happened there yesterday. I am very very sad. I have family and friends there that have been devistated and displaced because of this. Areas of Nashville that I know well, now sit under 12 feet of water. My Grandparents home is one of those. They both died in the last 9 months and their home was still full of antiques, pictures, and many many memories. It is

Good Morning Life

Lately, life has just been happening and I'm just trying to go with the flow...I am down a total of 43 pounds and I'm very excited about that!! My first goal was to be down to 299 by the end of June 10....I have 8 pounds to go and I think I will make that goal sooner than I thought:thumbup: I go for my first fill in 4 days. I am kinda nervous, I don't know why....maybe because this is the first or my food intake will probably be restricted. Even though I know I need to make better choices ab

I REALLY Can't Believe this.....

I really can not believe this.....Things have been gong ok and I've been getting some swimming in...but I woke up. went to bathroom and weighed....I'm at 310!!! 40 POUNDS GONE!!!! I haven't even had a fill yet....Wonder what it will be like with restriction???/ I am so very excited and proud of myself. This has not been easy at all....but it has been so worth it. To think I have lost 40 pounds since March 20th 2010 is amazing. I think someone in Heaven is rooting for me....( my dad ) I fee

ok....Bandster Hell really kicking in....

Ok....tomorrow is one month post op and bandster hell is kicking in...I find myself wanting to graze during night time...These are habits/demons that I have to learn to battle...there is no magic pill or band that will stop me from eating too much. I have to deal with these problems and fix them myself. I am feeling better day by day...I have been swimming a lot this week but not losing....not gaining either which I guess is the best part. I am now on soft foods and don't really know what my

Bandster hell.....Not too bad

Well...Im almost 1 month post op 6 days til post op anniversary of one month. I can't believe everything that has happened to me already. Healing from surgery was not pleasant, and I really do believe that I did recover more slowly than others because I am a smoker. Since then after two weeks of recovery, I got bronchitis and a head cold....they are finally leaving my body now. I also have had a bout with more depression and anxiety and I have seen my psychiatrist and she has increased my med

Changes....

Well, I am almost 3 weeks post surgery and what a ride its been already. The surgery wen well and I did experience some pain for the first 5-7 days. But by day 3 I went to the movies and started getting out of the house regularly. About 2 weeks post op, the depression came. I realized what I had done to myself and was sad at the "divorce" from food. Food was my best friend and I was letting it go...It was very hard to let go, but I made my peace with it and told it that I no longer needed t

March 6....18 days to go!!

I can't believe that in 18 days I will have a toll to help live a better and healthier life. I have so many dreams....things I want to do in my new life. I want to be healthy and have a healthy relationship with food. For the last week or so, I've been doing really well. I haven't even started my preop diet yet and I am down 12 pounds. For me, that is wonderful.:tt1: I am very proud of myself. It's not easy, especially with Beth having all of the Mountain Dew in the fridge, but I know that
